I have loaded the cameras on my storage card into the map folder. Iuse POI Warnerand when navigating I get the camer alerts fine. But I am unable to see the cameras in TomTom. I cannot find them listed in any of the areas listed in Manage POI area. I have made an error somwhere but not sure where any help.

Not sure if any of this helps:

POI file limit in Nav 5= 37 files. Nav 5 seems to choose for itself which 37 of say 50 it will load!

Place POI OV2 & BMP files in the map directory (in my case, 'Great_Britain-Map' on the root level of my card).

In Prefs, manage POI, select Enable/Disable POI and ensure you've got the right ones selected.

Let us know if any of this helps.

Bedbug: I have all of the POI's in the Storage Card Great Britain_Map folder. when I go to the enable/disable POI non of the speed cameras are listed this is my problem. So I am stuck.

Sounds like TT isn't recognising the file formats.

Probably won't help, but I'd probably try re-downloading the files, making sure I select TomTom OV2 carefully. I know there has been some testing going on...

Sorry for the double post Lupos0_1, frustration has set in..
When you say loaded do you mean selected for display, or actually located within the maps folder.

Located in the map folder. Once you exceed the 39 POI file limit, TT seems to randomly choose which ones it displays. I mean displays in the list rather than displays on the map!

Thanks For the reply BGF, I have removed most of the POI's from the map folder and sure enough I can see the Speed Cameras.
